Tree of Life Photo

Photographer’s Note

The Aesthetic Forest at Kessariani is the best place in Athens for an evening walk. Just a few minutes from where I live I pay my respects very often to this hospitable environment. The forest is being treated by monks.

This tree (we call it the tree of immortality in Greece) can grow more than 10m high.

Grande foto, você realmente conseguiu imortalizar a árvore. O enquadramento e o ângulo escolhidos foram muito felizes, mas o que faz sua foto tão bela e atraente é sem dúvida o céu azul, impecável. Parabéns.

Well composed and nice colors. With f/8 DOF could be better IMO. I think you should have used a tripod.

Good camera angle - it makes this tree colossal:). Perfect composition and nice catch of light.Cool colour match this pic very well too.
I argee with a bit better DOF.

Very Nice picture.I like the light capturing. as for the composition I think it would have been more powerful if the stump were more to the right side of the frame...
